About this Poll
The Emerson College New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Missouri and Utah polls were conducted October 17-19, under the Supervision of Professor Spencer Kimball. All samples consisted of only likely general election voters, per the following: NH n=900, with a margin of error (MOE) of +/- 3.2 percentage points, PA n=800 with an MOE of +/- 3.4%, UT n=700 with an MOE +/- 3.6%, and MO n=600 with an MOE of +/- 3.9%. Data was weighted by 2012 election results, age, gender, race and party affiliation. It is important to remember that subsets based on gender, age and party breakdowns carry with them higher margins of error, as the sample size is reduced. Data was collected using an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system of landlines only. The full methodology and results can be found at www.theecps.com.
